DANTE LIRICO GAME IS A SHOW.
DANTE LIRICO GAME IS A GAME.
DANTE LIRICO GAME IS A TALE.

Who was Dante? And what does it represent for us today? And how important is it for our current life to meet La Commedia, and to be able to use it to understand our reality?

A show about Dante, the child, the boy, the man, in love with life, literature, love, philosophy and good governance.

Four actors, a singer, an orchestral ensemble, a small wooden theater and then costumes, music, books, toys and medieval trinkets.

Here is "Dante Game", a serious game, just as serious are always the games that require attention and that actively involve the spectators, be they young or old.

The soundtrack of the show is inspired by the music of the lyrical and symphonic repertoire which, like all the great creations of humanity, manages to reveal the immense ability to evoke feelings through the notes of its composers. An ironic, but also melancholy show, which in just over an hour will tell the public, amidst pranks, jesters and patrons, lords and lords, devils and devilry, poets of the Dolce Stil Novo and beautiful Florentine madonnas, Guelphs and Ghibellines, the adventurous life of one of the greatest poets in history.

The man who contributed more than any other to the creation of the Italian language and the invention of another "visual and incisive" world that has become a fundamental part of our common understanding of the afterlife.

A visionary, an extraordinary artist, who nel mezzo del cammin of each of our single lives is still capable, after seven hundred years, of guiding us to discover, not only his incredible journeys, in unknown worlds built with words, but also within our own same life experiences.

A show by Venti Lucenti.
